Description from the seller

Zippo Heavy Armor 3D "Sichuan Opera Face-Changing" — Interactive Magnetic Mask & Dragon — Antique Silver — Brand New — 2025


Product Description:
Up for auction is an extraordinarily rare and highly artistic Zippo Heavy Armor "Sichuan Opera Face-Changing" windproof lighter. This masterpiece pays homage to the ancient Chinese theatrical art of Bian Lian (Face-Changing), featuring a brilliant interactive design and elite 3D craftsmanship.

Exclusive Interactive & Collectible Features:
* Magnetic Face-Changing Action: The beautifully enameled opera mask on the front is magnetically attached. When removed, it reveals a hidden, finely sculpted silver face of the opera performer underneath!
* Dual Dragon & Symbolism: The front captures a golden dragon alongside the performing artist. The reverse side features a massive, wrap-around Imperial golden dragon guarding a sacred talisman script, complemented by an attached traditional Hulu (bottle gourd) charm on the side for health and good fortune.

Item Condition:
* Condition: Absolute Mint / Brand New / Never Used (Never fueled, never struck).
* Bottom Stamp: J 25 (Manufactured in October 2025).
* Packaging: Comes with the original black Zippo cardboard box as shown in the photos. Please note: due to the ultra-heavy 3D armor extensions, the box is a tight fit and does not include a soft foam insert inside, but the outer lid closes properly.

Specifications:
* Brand: Zippo (100% Original)
* Series: Heavy Armor / 3D Custom Interactive Limited Design
* Material: Solid Brass
* Finish: Antique Silver with selective gold plating and multi-color enamel detailing
